Description
Right now opening a pane is very slow.
This can likely be significantly improved by always having an extra hidden pane that will come into view whenever a window is created.

Research direction
Start by locating the pane-creation and window-creation entry points in the JavaScript code, then reproduce the delay when opening a pane. The work is done when an available hidden pane is reused for new windows and pane opening is measurably faster.
